This study uses an intimate knowledge of various flora, fauna, and mineral properties to create potions and powders. When these potions or powders are ingested by someone, the result is as if a spell were cast on that person. These infusions can counter the effects of magik spells and other potions and powders, though strictly speaking, an herbalist’s creation is not magikal.
Herbalist’s concoctions spoil and become ineffective after six months time. Because their study is not magikally based, there are certain potions and powders herbalists cannot create. Some concoctions are specific to this field of study and have no counterpart in regular magik. Even though herbalists are not magik wielding characters, for game mechanics reasons, they are included in the mage class.
Special Ability: Herbalists have knowledge of recipes and the understanding of the correct, natural ingredients to create potion/powder. This is an inherent ability and no PP are spent to acquire it (CP are still needed to use the ability, however).
Herbalist’s concoctions are non-magikal and therefore, undetectable by a detect magik spell. There are also no limits to the number of herbalist potions or powders that can be carried at one time.
